Abstract: The disjoint MPs (Minimal Path sets) algorithm proposed was improved from the point of signal transmission. The CoA network was transformed into a corresponding signal network, which was composed of forward and backward transmitting paths. According to the basic principle of disjoint MPs algorithm, a set of signal transmitting and rewriting rules, including forward and backward processing rules, were designed to make the disjoint MPs could be generated by means of DES (Discrete Event Simulation). The basic realizing idea was studied in SimEvents, in which, the entities acted as the information carriers, and the nodes as the message storage and processing units. During the operation of the network model, messages carried by entities will be constantly rewritten and transmitted before all the entities arrived to the terminal node. Until then, all the disjoint MPs could be automatically generated. The simulation results of bridged network and a more complex one verified the correctness of the transmitting rules and the feasibility to realize this algorithm by means of DES.
